Home cooks who fry pakoras and bhajis on a regular basis keep a bag of gram flour in the cupboard. Indus Gram Flour comes in a generous 2kg bag, sized for households that cook from scratch often rather than occasionally. Gram flour is a fine, pale yellow flour milled from chickpeas. It has a slightly nutty character and forms a smooth, thick batter when mixed with water, which is why it is the base for pakoras, bhajis and bajjis. The same flour is used to make besan chilla, a savoury pancake, and to thicken curries such as kadhi. Many cooks also use it in gram flour laddoo and other traditional sweets. For everyday frying, whisk the flour with water and spices until smooth, then dip vegetables or coat them before frying in hot oil. A batter that coats the back of a spoon without running is the right consistency. Keep the flour in a cool, dry cupboard in a sealed container once opened, away from moisture, so it stays free-flowing and ready for the next batch of pakoras or chilla. With a 2kg bag, there is enough to cook regularly through the week, whether that means a quick teatime snack of onion bhajis or a weekend batch of besan chilla for breakfast.
